Edpurr Allen Poe

Allow us to introduce Edpurr Allen Poe, a mysterious 3-year-old gentleman with a penchant for quiet corners, dramatic staring, and taking his sweet time deciding whether he likes you.

Edpurr is a shy and anxious boy, so don't expect him to throw himself into your arms on chapter one. He prefers a slow-burn romance. Give him time, patience, and a peaceful home, and eventually you may hear the most beautiful sound of all...

A purr.

Like the works of his namesake, Edpurr is a little mysterious, a little dramatic, and best appreciated in a quiet setting. He needs a calm, peaceful home where he can settle in at his own pace without too much commotion.

At first, he may regard you from the shadows as though contemplating the deepest mysteries of the universe. Are you trustworthy? Do you have snacks? Why have you disturbed his nap?

But once Edpurr decides you're one of his people, his softer side begins to emerge. Beneath that mysterious exterior is a sweet soul just waiting to feel safe.

He may not be the cat who runs to greet you at the door. He's more the "I have been watching you from beneath the furniture for 17 minutes" type.

For the right person, Edpurr could be your very own literary companion. Adopt Edpurr Allen Poe and make sure his next chapter is a happy one. Because everyone deserves a little mystery in their life... and every Poe deserves a forevermore.
